  • A Century of Riverbank Protection and River Training in Bangladesh
    water Article A Century of Riverbank Protection and River Training in Bangladesh Knut Oberhagemann 1,*, A. M. Aminul Haque 2 and Angela Thompson 1 1 Northwest Hydraulic Consultants, Edmonton, AB T6X 0E3, Canada; [email protected] 2 Bangladesh Water Development Board, Dhaka 1205, Bangladesh; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 September 2020; Accepted: 25 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: Protecting against riverbank erosion along the world’s largest rivers is challenging. The Bangladesh Delta, bisected by the Brahmaputra River (also called the Jamuna River), is rife with complexity. Here, an emerging middle-income country with the world’s highest population density coexists with the world’s most unpredictable and largest braided, sand-bed river. Bangladesh has struggled over decades to protect against the onslaught of a continuously widening river corridor. Many of the principles implemented successfully in other parts of the world failed in Bangladesh. To this end, Bangladesh embarked on intensive knowledge-based developments and piloted new technologies. After two decades, successful, sustainable, low-cost riverbank protection technology was developed, suitable for the challenging river conditions. It was necessary to accept that no construction is permanent in this morphologically dynamic environment. What was initially born out of fund shortages became a cost-effective, systematic and adaptive approach to riverbank protection using improved knowledge, new materials, and new techniques, in the form of geobag revetments. This article provides an overview of the challenges faced when attempting to stabilize the riverbanks of the mighty rivers of Bangladesh. An overview of the construction of the major bridge crossings as well as riverbank protection schemes is detailed.

  • 2.4 Bangladesh Railway Assessment
    2.4 Bangladesh Railway Assessment Overview Bangladesh Railway at a Glance Development Progress of BR Performance and Constraints of BR Security Arrangements of BR International Corridors Leading to Bangladesh Bangladesh Railway Assessment Page 1 Page 2 Overview Bangladesh Railway (BR), the state-run transportation agency of the country, who is responsible for operating and maintenance of 2877.10 Km railway line. For smooth operations the Railway network is divided into 2 regions, Eastern and Western. Bangladesh Railway (BR) operates and maintains the entire railway network of the country. BR is headed by the Directorate General of Bangladesh Railway under the Ministry of Railways along with Bangladesh Railway Authority (BRA) which works for policy guidance of BR. To upgrade the services of BR, Railway ministry has newly been established as an independent ministry in 2011 separating it from previous Ministry of Communications. Railway connected almost all important places of 44 civil districts and plays important role in the economy. It operates Total 348 Passenger trains and 6 Container trains & 20-25 goods trains daily. Besides, it operates the largest Inland Container Depot with capacity of 90,000 TEUs. BR network was initially North-South connection based because of riverine land script. Establishment of new East-West connections and missing links and revival of old and abandon tracks are the key areas of interventions. Rehabilitation of existing railway lines, modernization of signaling system and acquisition of new rolling stocks to improve the performance and to cop up with the upcoming new situation linking the network with the Trans Asian Railway are the important challenges in front of BR.
